An example of the growing prominence in print culture: on the British Library online database, 220 London periodicals published before 1910 feature home in the title. Of these, only ten came out before 1840. 10. Leonore Davidoff and Catherine Hall’s work still offers the definitive explanation of this. L. Davidoff and C.

For example, in 1900, an article in the Girls Own Paper tried to keep single girls who lived away from the family home on the straight and narrow by urging them to sit down to regular meals and set the table correctly, stressing the necessity of butter knives. ‘Living in Lodgings’, The Girl’s Own Paper, April 16, 1900, p. 563.

Snell has recently shown, the word was used by the poor in the first half of the nineteenth century to denote place of origin as well as abode. K.D.M.

Foucault, Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison (London: Penguin, 1991, first translation published by Allen Lane 1977), p. 173. 41. These theories have been subject to considerable revision and debate. Architectural historians point out that in practical terms the influence of the panopticon was limited T.A. Markus, Buildings and Power: Freedom and Control in the Origin of Modern Building Types (London: Routledge, 1993), p. 123; J. Alber and F. Lauterbach, Stones of Law, Bricks of Shame: Narrating Imprisonment in the Victorian Age (London: University of Toronto Press, 2009), p. 10. Few asylums were based on this plan. L. Smith, ‘The Architecture of Confinement: Urban Public Asylums in England, 1750–1820’, in L. Topp, J.E. Moran and J. Andrews (eds), Madness, Architecture and the Built Environment: Psychiatric Spaces in Historical Context (London: Routledge, 2007), pp. 41–61, on p. 54. Yet others argue that it is the significance of surveillance as a means of inspiring a feeling of self-watching amongst inmates that remains crucial despite this. L. Topp and J. Moran, ‘Introduction’, in Topp, Moran and Andrews (eds), Madness, Architecture and the Built Environment, p. 3; C. Philo, ‘“Enough to Drive one Mad”: the Organization of Space in 19th-Century Lunatic Asylums’ in J. Wolch and M. Dear (eds), The Power of Geography: How Territory Shapes Social Life (London: Unwin Hyman, 1989), pp. 258–290. Otter questions the idea of panopticism more aggressively. C.

Scull, Museums of Madness: The Social Organization of Insanity in Nineteenth-Century England (Allen Lane, London, 1979), pp. 13–15. This is disputed by Roy Porter in Mind-Forg’d Manacles: A History of Madness in England from the Restoration to the Regency (London: Penguin, 1990), pp. 2–3, 9. 70. The relationship between ideas of Victorian womanhood and the female insane was first explored in depth by Elaine Showalter in The Female Malady (London: Virago Press, 1987). Some of her assumptions, including the idea that women were more likely to be confined, have been challenged. For example see D. Wright, ‘Delusions of Gender?: Lay Identification and Clinical Diagnosis of Insanity in Victorian England’, in J. Andrews and A. Digby (eds), Sex and Seclusion, Class and Custody: Perspectives on Gender and Class in the History of British and Irish Psychiatry (Amsterdam: Rodopi, 2004) pp. 169–171. Nonetheless, gender remained a powerful factor in patient treat- ment. For a recent discussion see L. Hide, ‘From Asylum to Mental Hospital: Gender, Space and Patient Experience in London County Council Asylums, 1890–1910’, in Hamlett, Hoskins and Preston (eds), Residential Institutions, pp. 51–64. 71.

Mandler, ‘The Problem with Cultural History’, Cultural and Social History, 1 (2004), p. 96. 76. In 2005, Michael Roper argued that recent gender history had focused on cultural Notes 175

codes or norms, neglecting the individual, subjective dimension of experience. M. Roper, ‘Slipping out of View: Subjectivity and Emotion in Gender History’, History Workshop Journal, 59 (2005), pp. 57–59. Two recent works that arguably offer a more developed exploration of the relationship between cultural norms and individual emotional experiences are L. Delap, Knowing Their Place: Domestic Service in Twentieth- Century Britain (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2011) and K. Harvey, The Little Republic: Masculinity and Domestic Authority in Eighteenth-Century Britain (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2012). 77. For example, H.

12. Anne Digby suggests expectations around this increased in the second half of the century, as patient numbers grew and doctors became more reliant on inanimate objects to help in the process of ‘moral management’.
